Fly camps for the purpose of frequent relocation

By Projects

Market: Mining

Solution: Redeployable integrated full turnkey solution accommodating 150 men

These specially designed 10 x 10 person fly camps are capable of frequent manual relocation, every two weeks, by helicopter or light pick-up trucks. Six men alone can lift the individual components of the camp. The purpose of this camp is to allow the survey teams working on the centre-line of the proposed railway line to keep track with the progress of the work taking place.

The camp composition consisted of three fully equipped soft-walled shelters for the use of:

  • Dormitory style air conditioned units
  • Kitchen or air-conditioned diner
  • Ablution with showers, toilets and wash basins

The infrastructure support systems included:

  • All internal and external water, sewage and electrical reticulation
  • A water purification plant with reverse osmosis
  • Biological sewerage treatment plant
  • Synchronised silent generators
  • Lightning protection, and
  • Redeployable packaging.

Suppliers of C130 transportable HERCon™ units

By Projects

Market: Aviation

Solution: Operational control centres

Weatherhaven RCS was awarded a tender which required that we provide the South African Air Force (SAAF) with a system that can be quickly deployed, is easy to install and is just as quickly redeployed. Our solution was hard-walled containers or HERCons™ to be used as operational control offices.

These units were built to be C130 transportable, and were shipped as a standard 6 m ISO shipping container. Once on-site, this container expanded to three times the transit floor space. We ensure that all services are pre-installed, with external power, water and wastewater connected. These operational control centres are the heart of all air force operations locally and internationally.
